Lucky Me!

Lucky Me!

I got born AND I’m still alive.

I live in a society that has been free of war my whole life.

I have never been anywhere close to starving.

I have the use of all my senses.

My body is strong and able to do almost everything I want.

Lucky me!

The very ability to overcome the things I have overcome, and achieve the things I have achieved, was there from the start, because of the particular genes I inherited and the circumstances in which they have developed.

All of which is the antidote to any kind of inflated ego, or sense of superiority.

But what about unlucky me?

Of course I’ve had some. And the acknowledgement of that is the antidote to any harsh judgements I might make about myself. When it doesn’t work I can give myself a break.

Which brings me right back to Lucky Me!

Honestly…. it’s luck, antidotes and general good fortune all the way back, sideways, down the line, and any direction I happen to be heading.

Green lights all the way, in fact.
